He pulled in Mei Ying's body.
Meanwhile, his Lotus Hand seized her Inner Core, yanking it in the opposite direction.
Her body was thus torn from her Inner Core.
In that instant, though her eyes blazed with unwillingness, the life in them slowly faded.
Xu Lei's alms bowl collected her body as he retracted the Lotus Hand, gazing at Mei Ying's Inner Core in his palm.
He was overcome with a wave of emotion.
He recalled the time Mei Ying had ambushed him.
A single blow had shattered the bones in his arm, forcing him to flee for his life.
But now, that same Mei Ying had died by his hand, and even her Inner Core was about to be refined.
'Mei Ying probably died without knowing if she was killed by the man from back then, or by his twin brother.'
'Not that I would bother explaining. I just killed her and got it over with.'
'There was no need to tell her who her killer was.'
'I killed her, and that was that.'
But Xu Lei didn't linger.
